  facilitate IP-based services and related
  wideband/broadband deployment.
• Overall, IP-related technical work is mainly
  being developed under
• TR-30 (Facsimile Terminal Equipment and Systems),
  TR-34 (Satellite Equipment and Systems), TR-41
  (User Premises Telecommunications Requirements),
  TR-42 (User Premises Telecommunications
  Infrastructure) and TR-45 (Mobile and Personal
  Communications Systems) Engineering Committees
  (TRs) and their Subcommittees and Working Groups.
  Additionally, Project MESA is indicating the
  importance of next generation technologies
  (including IPv4 and v6 functionality).

Equipment and Systems

• TR-34 is actively working on several areas that
  are IP-related, including
• IP Over Satellite (IPoS)
• Interface standards, technical reports and
  position papers for service descriptions, network
  architectures, user terminal specifications,
  functional elements and relevant protocol
  enhancements for efficient IP services over
  satellite.
• Involving TCP profile, especially within IPSEC.
• Specifically targeted for an IPoS solution that
  addresses the residential 2-way broadband
  market and enabling seamless interoperability
  with terrestrial IP networks.
• Such development will promote the deployment of
  satellite-based solutions competitive to those
  currently provided by access systems based on DSL
  and cable access systems (e.g., Data Over Cable
  Service Interface Specification DOCSIS).
• Close liaison with other standard groups,
  industry organizations, and regulatory bodies
  will be maintained.

TIA TR-34 Engineering Committee, Satellite
Equipment and Systems

• TR-34 IP-related actively (cont)
• Joint STD collaboration with ETSI on Geo Mobile
  Radio (GRM) specifications.
• Involving requirements necessary for successful
  two-way communication between a Mobile Earth
  Station (MES), the Satellite, Gateway and the
  Network Control Center.
• Also, requirements for implementing the GMR-1
  radio interface for MES communications using
  Geosynchronous Earth Orbit satellites and
  interworking into a GSM core network.
• Additionally, the GMR systems (GSM derived) are
  specified for geostationary satellites and
  handheld mobile user terminals that are equipped
  for dual-mode operation with satellite and
  terrestrial GSM.
• The new specifications accommodate packet data
  service, provide upgrade capabilities to existing
  GMR systems data and provide users for a
  transition to an advanced Geo-mobile packet radio
  service (GMPRS) system.
• Another area of development involves IP
  multicasting and its operation via satellite.
• TR-34 members will continue to work within the
  IETF to impact protocol development of Multicast
  and reliable Multicast protocols.

TIA TR-45 Engineering Committee, Mobile and
Personal Communications Systems

• TR-45 IP/packet data-related actively includes
• Involvement in IP transport-related activities
  (e.g., signaling) that involve security issues
  relative to IP-based transport.
• Handoff enhancements to support CDMA packet data
  service in conjunction with the existing legacy
  ANSI-41 circuit mode networks.
• IP network development for cdma2000 Spread
  Spectrum Systems
• Including All-IP Core Network Enhancements,
  system evolution and support for circuit mode IP
  transport call delivery.

TIA TR-45 Engineering Committee, Mobile and
Personal Communications Systems

• TR-45 IP/packet data-related actively includes
  (cont)
• UWC-136 Radio Transmission Technology (RTT)
  involving GPRS backbone support for IP traffic.
• Interface standards for the Radio Access Network
  (RAN) between a switching entity and the air
  interface.
• Including mobile IP interfaces to the PDSN.
• This work involves the application of Packet Data
  and Internet based concepts and protocols for
  transport in the current cdma2000 RAN, providing
  procedures for Soft and Hard handoffs.
• Note that development of an optimized IP
  transport for the current RAN interfaces (A1, A2,
  A5, A3, A7 and Abis) may not share a common
  protocol stack.
• Each interface will be evaluated for possible IP
  transport, based on various characteristics such
  as performance and complexity.

TIA TR-45 Engineering Committee, Mobile and
Personal Communications Systems

• TR-45 IP/packet data-related actively includes
  (cont)
• High Rate Packet Data Air Interface
  Specifications to provide IP packet transport
  over a cdma2000 air interface.
• Maximization of cdma2000 system IP-based packet
  data throughput and capacity.
• Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) System
  Specifications

  address and providing native IP datagram
  transport to both the public Internet and private
  Intranets, based on network configurations.
• Wireless IP architectures based on IETF
  protocols.
• cdma2000 wireless IP network standard
  development.

TIA/ETSI Public Safety Partnership, Project MESA

• This Partnership Project between ETSI TIA
  (Mobility for Emergency and Safety Applications),
  is the first international communications RD
  standardization partnership project whose aim is
  to develop joint specifications for advanced and
  future Public Safety/Emergency Response mobile
  broadband communications technology.
• Involving Law Enforcement, Fire Fighting,
  Homeland Security, National/International Crime
  and Terror investigations, Emergency and Medical
  Services and Disaster Response (including mass
  destruction and bio-terrorism) professionals.
• The Project MESA user Statement of Requirements
  (SoR) document indicates the importance of next
  generation public safety wireless technologies
  (including IPv4/v6 functionality) and
  characteristics related to security,
  interworking, interoperability, auto
  configuration, increased addressability for
  devices and other enhanced capabilities, as
  required.
• The latest SoR document can be viewed at
  http//www.projectmesa.org/ftp/SSG_SA/Drafts/SoR(l
  atest_version)/.

TIA/ETSI Public Safety Partnership, Project MESA

• Within Project MESA, the SoR document will be
  updated at regular intervals and represents the
  focal source of information for Project MESAs
  industry members in their current and ongoing RD
  work towards the realization of revolutionary new
  and globally applicable communication
  specifications and the future standards that
  evolve from them.
• The end result of this Public Safety/Emergency
  Response user-oriented activity will be a suite
  of coordinated specifications and future
  standards designed for advanced, broadband,
  interoperable, terrestrial mobility operations,
  including connectivity to broadband satellite
  communications (SatCom) services, driven by
  common scenarios.
• These requirements can be tailored for specific
  local and regional implementation scenarios and
  situations. Such standards and specifications,
  designed to benefit the Public Safety/Emergency
  Response community and our nations citizens,
  will be realized in two distinct but highly
  related areas -- system end-users and system
  owner/operators.
